The greatest possible error in Bruce's measurement of the buckle as 3.2 cm depends on the precision of the ruler used. If the ruler has increments of 0.1 cm, the greatest possible error would typically be ±0.05 cm, meaning the actual length of the buckle could be anywhere between 3.15 cm and 3.25 cm. This range accounts for the smallest unit of measurement and ensures that the measurement is as accurate as possible.
Use the smallest volume graduated cylinder capable of holding the liquid to measure, this will result in the most accurate result. First, to insure greatest accuracy, one should make sure conditions are appropriate for the use of the cylinder, meaning that most graduated cylinders are calibrated for use with water at 20 degrees Celsius. One can determine this by looking for "20° TC" or "20° TD" marked on the cylinder. "TC", or "to contain", means that the volume of liquid contained in the cylinder is what is indicated by the graduated markings. "TD", or "to deliver", means the volume of liquid indicated by the markings is what will be delivered when the liquid is dispensed. This difference exists because when liquid is dispensed from any glassware a small amount remains and "TD" takes this difference into account. Second, the liquid should be poured into the cylinder carefully down one side, tilting the cylinder to minimize splashing and the formation of bubbles. Finally, to read the liquid volume, the cylinder should be on a level surface and the liquid level read at the bottom of the meniscus at eye level.

The precision of integers with trailing zeros is ambiguous. The precision of 20400 litres can be 1, 10 or 100. Corresponding to these values, the greatest possible errors can be 0.5L, 5L or 50L. Actually, the precision could even be 20400L, in which case the maximum possible error is 10200L. If, for example, you had tanks of 20400L each, you might simply know how many tanks' worth you had - precision to 20400L. Unlikely, though.

The greatest possible error for a measurement of 25 meters typically depends on the precision of the measuring instrument used. If the instrument has a precision of ±0.1 meters, for example, the greatest possible error would be 0.1 meters, meaning the true value could range from 24.9 to 25.1 meters. If the precision is different, the error would adjust accordingly. Always refer to the specific instrument's specifications for accurate error values.
The greatest amount of wear on cylinder walls usually occurs at the very top of the cylinder, near the combustion chamber. This area is exposed to the highest temperatures and pressures during the engine's operation, leading to increased wear.
